The study presents the results of the empirical justification of the indicators, which confirmed the possibility of taking them into account in further studies.
 The study proposes to shed light on the results of the use of the peer review method for solving the scientific problem and justify the application of this method.
 The article presents the results of calculating the final amount for each indicator, calculating the arithmetic mean, selecting the most significant indicators and building a new ranking of indicators. To assess the average consistency of all experts, a concordance coefficient was used when related rankings were available, that is, the same rank values in the estimates of one expert.
 The significance of the coefficient of concordance by its Pearson test was determined and all 92 indicators were evaluated.
 By performing the relevant mathematical calculations of the processing of the information obtained on the basis of the questionnaire of experts, six priority indicators were determined in determining the assessment of the effectiveness of the internal control system.
